I have both and can send you some to try out.---no charge....Just let me know...
 
I have used both and the super tape roll works, but it is a hassle to work it..It's good for getting lint off your clothes also..LOL
 
The tape strips works also, I just find that it's better if I put it on my skin instead of the front lace wig...

I make a sandwich of SuperTape, (ST on my skin at the nape & ST on the lace at the nape) and it holds for days....for me 7, but I haven't gone longer cause I need to wash my hair.

Supertape does not work for me.  I keep hearing you ladies talk about it, so I ordered some more.  I have the roll, and the strips.  It just don't like me.

That's cool. I was thinking of layering it with liquid adhesive. I really want something that will help the nape hold, too.

Just PM your information and I will put it in the mail first thing in the morning and you should have it by Tuesday..
 
The time that I put it on the front lace wig, I ended up with the tape stuck to all of my hair on my right side...I had a time with taking it out..so I will apply it to my skin/hair first and then appy the front lace wig...

The strip work great for me.  I use it with no tape combo on my nape!  I get about a 7-8 day hold.

I use C-22 Solvent or 99% alcohol....also you can combine alcohol with evoo to create a mixture to remove the ST.

I love supertape strips; however I can only use them in the front as they do not hold for my nape area.  They hold real good for the front in combination with safe grip for a more natural hairline look.

Thanks unladylikediva.  I'm need cheaper methods to remove things.  I just purchased supertape.  I hope I get the hold you ladies get.

strips are the greatest. I have a roll of proflex that is such a headache to use.  I just found a method another lf diva uses which are tweezers to apply with the roll tape.  Will be trying this for my next nape application venture.
